      LEWISVILLE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 24, 2012--Uranium Resources,
      Inc. (NASDAQ: URRE) (&#8220;URI&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;), today announced that at a
      special meeting of stockholders of Neutron Energy, Inc. (&#8220;Neutron&#8221;),
      held on August 23, 2012, Neutron stockholders approved the Agreement and
      Plan of Merger, dated March 1, 2012 (the &quot;Merger Agreement&quot;), by and
      among Neutron, URI and URI Merger Corporation, and the merger (the
      &quot;Merger&quot;) contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
    </p>
    <p>
      Of the shares voted at Neutron&#8217;s special meeting of stockholders, 99.9%
      of the votes cast were &#8220;FOR&#8221; approval of the Merger Agreement and the
      Merger, which represents approximately 61.5% of Neutron&#8217;s outstanding
      shares as of the record date for the meeting.
    </p>
    <p>
      Approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger by Neutron stockholders
      satisfies one of the conditions to complete the acquisition of Neutron
      by URI. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
      Agreement remains subject to URI stockholder approval of the issuance of
      37,000,000 shares of URI common stock in connection with the Merger at
      the special meeting of URI stockholders being held on August 29, 2012.
      Assuming URI stockholder approval is received, the transaction is
      expected to close on or about August 31, 2012.

      <b>About Uranium Resources, Inc.</b>
    </p>
    <p>
      Uranium Resources Inc. explores for, develops and mines uranium. Since
      its incorporation in 1977, URI has produced over 8 million pounds of
      uranium by in-situ recovery (ISR) methods in the state of Texas. URI
      also has 183,000 acres of uranium mineral holdings and 101.4 million
      pounds of in-place mineralized uranium material in New Mexico and an NRC
      license to produce up to 1 million pounds of uranium per year. The
      Company acquired these properties over the past 20 years along with an
      extensive information database of historic drill hole logs, assay
      certificates, maps and technical reports. None of URI&#8217;s properties is
      currently in production.
    </p>
    <p>
      URI&#8217;s strategy is to fully develop its resource base in New Mexico and
      Texas, expand its asset base both within and outside of New Mexico and
      Texas, partner with larger mining companies that have undeveloped
      uranium assets or with junior mining companies that do not have the
      mining experience of URI, as well as provide restoration expertise to
      those that require the capability or lack the proficiency.
